Contractor Income and expenses

SteveL1954 · ‎March 13, 2023

My wife, who is retired, earned income as a freelance contractor (single contract for professional services with no business affiliation) and was not issued a T slip. How do I report this income and how do I claim expenses associated with fulfilling the contract?

She is considered self-employed if she earns total or supplemental income from freelance work that is not taxed at source. In this case, she will fill T2125 form (Statement of Business or Professional Activities) form to declare taxable income and associated expenses/deductions to the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA).
